Samsung CEO Jong-Hee Han has apologized
for deliberately slowing down smartphones. Samsung, which has faced many
scandals since the beginning of 2022, was last criticized for the GOS problem.
In recent weeks, Samsung has reportedly
slowed down the use of the Galaxy S22 smartphone with the GOS (Game Optimizing
Service) service. This news caused a lot of noise in the media. For this
reason, users have strongly criticized Samsung. At a meeting with the company`s
shareholders, Samsung CEO Jong-Hee Han apologized and said he would listen
carefully to users to prevent this from happening again.
According to reports, the GOS
service affects more than 10,000 applications and games. Samsung claims that
the GOS service is used to extend the life of the smartphone and save battery
life. However, it turned out that the GOS service is not activated in benchmark
performance applications. In other words, smartphones show higher results
because this process is not applied in performance tests. This also means to
deceive users. Samsung has now released an update that deactivates the GOS
service for the Galaxy S22 smartphones. It is expected that the company will
release this update for older smartphone models
